...I just felt what seemed like a minor earthquake here. I wondered if it was my imagination.

It was scary. We've had an earthquake here before, years ago, but it wasn't this strong. I thought sure the building was going to give way.

USGS is saying it was a 5.8.

Oh, good. It wasn't just here. I thought that our house just might be crumbling to bits.

I know people from here (NC) to NY who said it happened there too.

I'm used to little quakes. They're common enough in California. I don't really notice them much of the time even when they're slightly bigger and shit's actually moving...

"Did you feel that earthquake?"

"What?"

"..."

Never been in a larger one to my recollection. Been in a thunder hailstorm with tornadoes though.

I'm not very happy lately either.

I wonder if I should go into detail about it. I've kind of been meaning to for a while (about it and something that's kind of related to it), but I've been worried you'd think less of me.

This might not mean much coming from me, but...I know I would not think less of you.

Know what else makes you feel alive? Physical activity. Go jog or dance or something and stop whining.

Yes Vriska is a huge bitch who must play with her new found ability to manipulate thoughts.

...My dad just sent me a text asking if I felt that earthquake. Which I didn't.

...Odd.

And now they're saying it was a 6.0. That is huge for this part of the country.

Actually, that does mean a lot coming from you.

^I don't think so. You're not in the east coast.

I just looked it up on Google News and apparently it could be felt all the way in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

If it was felt in Cleveland and Akron and also Michigan, I'd expect it to be felt here.

Bizarre.

I am not sure.

I wonder if trying to use it to make sure Kanaya trusts her is too much and too 8itchy and will turn Kanaya away FOREVER if she finds out.
